+Compiling SILC Toolkit on MAC OS X
+==================================
+
+SILC Toolkit works on MAC OS X as well, as that is Unix based operating
+system. Some compilation issues however must be taken into consideration.
+
+To compile the Toolkit on MAC OS X give the following commands:
+
+ setenv CFLAGS -no-cpp-precomp
+ ./configure powerpc
+
+If you want to compile debug version give also the --enable-debug option
+to the ./configure. After configuration the source tree is ready for
+compilation which you can simply start by giving the command:
+
+ make
+
+This will compile the libraries and applications. If you do not want to
+compile the applications, before giving make command go to the lib/
+directory, and give make there:
+
+ cd lib
+ make
+
+This will compile only the libraries, and nothing else.
